Georgia Cornerback's Reckless Driving Incident

Georgia cornerback Daniel Jeremy Harris was arrested by the Athens-Clarke County Police Department on Thursday on five misdemeanor driving charges. Reports indicate that Harris was driving a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee with an expired temporary tag along the Athens Perimeter near College Station Road when an officer clocked him doing over 100 mph. In a shocking turn of events, Harris was overtaking other vehicles in the rain, leading to serious concerns about road safety.

Details of the Arrest

  • The officer observed that the seatbelt in the driver’s seat was buckled, suggesting Harris was not wearing it while driving.
  • The Jeep had illegal tint and was found to be unregistered.
  • Harris was booked on charges including reckless driving and no insurance.

The vehicle was subsequently impounded. Despite the serious nature of these charges, Harris bonded out of jail later that evening. According to the SEC student athlete availability report, he was not listed as unavailable for Saturday night’s game against the Kentucky Wildcats.
